Weekend Watch: Local Comedy Showcase and Starship Reducer

The holidays are supposed to be a happy time, so what better way to forget about the more stressful aspects of the season than with some of Fargo-Moorhead’s finest comics? Stand-up standouts Adam Quesnell, JD Provorse, Paloma Segal, Josh Wallace, Luke Jensen and Allison Page take the stage at 9 tonight in The Aquarium, 226 Broadway, to share some holiday humor.

Friday night at The Aquarium, Starship Reducer reunites for an evening of eggnog-induced prog rock and perhaps the return of a giant hand. OK Fox digitizes the hall, and Lava Proof Boots warm up the crowd. Cover is $5. Both shows are ID-only. (701) 235-5913.
